3.00After a while the locations became too similar. Children got rather bored. We broke it up with lunch and a visit to the Senedd

5.00The design of the experience was cleverly thought through and extensive such that we saw a wide ranging area of Cardiff and felt mentally stimulated. We found it all great fun and were helped by sunny weather.
A great way to see the city!

5.00I visited Cardiff with my 13 year old daughter, a friend and their 12 year old son. We all loved this activity! My daughter and I have done these before; it’s a great way of seeing somewhere new, getting to know your way around a new city and, it gets you moving after the journey! The weather was shocking on the day we arrived and decided to do this quest but, it’s testament to the enjoyment, that we completed it anyway! Some of the tasks were really tricky, some not so - it was a great mix and kept the kids occupied throughout. A winner! I’ll definitely be doing more!
